kor Posted March 17, 2012 Share Posted March 17, 2012 (edited) My example is _GuiCtrlCreateProgress Func _Message($sMessage, $bError = 0, $iBarCount = "") _GUICtrlListBox_InsertString($hProgress, $sMessage, -1) Local $iCount = _SendMessage($hProgress, 0x18B, 0, 0) ; get count _SendMessage($hProgress, 0x197, $iCount - 1, 0) ; scroll to correct line If $bError = False Then $iBarCount += 5 ; step the precentage GUICtrlSetData($hBar, $iBarCount) ; set the progress bar percentage Sleep(200) ; sleep to allow time to see progress step and read messages EndIf EndFunc ;==>_Message This function (among other things) steps the progress bar percentage by 5 every time it is called. However there are certain times when calling this function that I'd like to set the progress bar percentage to an exact value. When calling this function with the current parameters I get this _Message("step 1", False, 25) _Message("step 2", False, 55) _Message("testing") When step 1 and step 2 run they correctly set the progress percentage to the value in the function (25 and 55 respectivly) however when testing runs it resets the progress bar back to 0. Any idea why? The behavior I am looking for is that if I specify the percentage when calling the function I want to specifically set the progress bar to that value, otherwise I want the progress bar to add 5 to whatever the last value was. IE, the progress percentage should be at 60 when "testing" runs, yet it is actually at 5. Edited March 17, 2012 by kor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jchd Posted March 17, 2012 Share Posted March 17, 2012 Default = 0 but you test for False.

MilesAhead Posted March 17, 2012 Share Posted March 17, 2012 Not quite sure what you're doing but $iBarCount is set to "" if not specified. Later in the function you += 5 to it. Seems like you are incrementing "" by 5. Also it's not a ByRef param so it's not holding value between calls. It may just be simpler to use a global to hold the percentage and increment that outside the function. Just send in the percentage you want instead of incrementing. It should work either way as long as you keep track of the value somewhere. My Freeware Page Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kor Posted March 17, 2012 Author Share Posted March 17, 2012 Func _Message($sMessage, $bError = False, $iBar = 0) _GUICtrlListBox_InsertString($hProgress, $sMessage, -1) Local $iCount = _SendMessage($hProgress, 0x18B, 0, 0) ; get count _SendMessage($hProgress, 0x197, $iCount - 1, 0) ; scroll to correct line If $bError = False Then If $iBar <> 0 Then $iBarCount = $iBar Else $iBarCount += 10 ; step the precentage EndIf GUICtrlSetData($hBar, $iBarCount) ; set the progress bar percentage Sleep(2000) ; sleep to allow time to see progress step and read messages EndIf EndFunc ;==>_Message My fixed code. I realized I just needed to make 2 different variables to allow me check for the 2 different scenarios I wanted. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
